| Message | "A rubber bullet can take a man down as effectively as a real one. There is no need to have real bullets, particularly in the hands of something as vast and as organized as the government. Besides, under the current laws, the people will be more than adequately armed themselves." -Iosef Bordeyev, Official Spokesman for the Revolutionary Socialist Party |
